- Gold Fields Limited advises that earnings per share (EPS) for the six months ended 30 June 2017 (H1 2017) are expected to be 43-57% (US$0.06-0.08)lower than the US$0.14 per share reported for the six months ended 30 June 2016 (H1 2016), at US$0.06-0.08 per share
- Headline earnings per share (HEPS) for H1 2017 are expected to be 38-50% (US$0.06-0.08) lower than the US$0.16 per share reported for H1 2016, at US$0.08-0.10 per share

- The decreases in EPS, HEPS and normalised earnings are mainly due to the impact of stronger exchange rates on converting local currency costs to US dollars and an increase in amortisation
The higher amortisation relates mainly to Tarkwa as a result of lower reserve ounces (as reported on 28 March 2017) and an increase in ore mined and stockpiled. In addition, EPS and HEPS are impacted by non-recurring items, including the silicosis provision as detailed below
- Attributable gold equivalent production for Q2 2017 is expected to be 550koz (Q1 2017: 497koz), with all-in sustaining costs (AISC) of US$949/oz (Q1 2017: US$1,016/oz) and all-in costs (AIC) of US$1,092/oz (Q1 2017: US$1,114/oz).
